Wedding Course In Tower Regency Hotel, Ipoh

This evening I was given a task to do.... I was invited to go to Tower Regency Ballroom to "taste" a set of wedding course.... Of course, it is my pleasure.... anytime!  When it comes to food tasting, call me anytime!  LOL.... Hope I do not sound that I have not eaten for a long-long time!  

Coming back to the dinner in Tower Regency, there were ten of us led to a table and after a short while, dish after dish came out....
There is a total of 8 dishes plus refreshing longan drink right at the end.  About the food, there is nothing much to shout about.  Needless to say, the food depends on what kind of price one is willing to pay... Actually the taste is not too bad if one does not start to compare with other restaurants.  One of us mentioned this... "If you want tastier food, then the better choice will be those authentic chinese restaurants but then, the atmosphere will be entirely different from those held in ballrooms."

So which do you rather prefer?  Tastier food with less romantic scenes or Simple food with posh surroundings?
While you ponder over the above question, let me show you the homemade "Ang-ku-s" prepared by one guest.  She brought these for us and I finally reached a verdict....

The Desserts stole the "limelight" for this evening....

  1. Can see from your food photos, kinda simple. The first combination was only 3 dishes. Chinese said the dish is "phok"~thin.

    I like the angku very much.

  2. you're right depends how much you willing to pay for a table. The venue where to hold the wedding reception also another tricky part to decide.

  7. This is a hard choice. Pictures #2 and #4 look the tastiest to me. I think maybe I would rather have the better food than the atmosphere. So WHY did they call YOU, Claire? Are you on some kind of list or what? This would be HEAVEN!

  21. I couldn't agree more with Hayley. I prefer delish food to romantic environment.

    I know many guests would complain if the food tastes so-so. They never complain about the so-so environment :p
